Vladimir Prosecutor’s office returns strategic object to state

Residents of the village of Gorodischi in Petushinsky district have checked the legality of the privatization of the local dam. After a personal appeal to the regional prosecutor Yulia Kalistova, the supervisory authority found out that at the end of 2025 the hydraulic structure on the Kirzhach River passed into the hands of a privateer.

The situation was complicated by the fact that along the crest of the dam there is a single road connecting the village with the district center. At the same time, the new owner did not ensure the proper technical condition of the facility, which posed a threat to the infrastructure.

In addition, the transaction itself was illegal: by law, dams on the rivers are exclusively federal property. In the near future, the court will consider the claim of the prosecutor’s office to seize the structure from a private person and transfer it to the property of the Russian Federation.
